Legend for a Lawman

In Cobb's Run, Kansas, while waiting for the Virginian, Randy Benton is framed for a $50,000 payroll robbery. His defence, that the legendary but aging town marshall, Floyd Buckman (Ford Rainey), had inadvertently allowed the robbers into the bank, is scoffed at by the locals. As a result, Randy is sentenced to be hanged. The Virginian tries to track down the the real robbers to prove Randy's innocence and in desperation even breaks Randy out of jail. In the end however, Randy's salvation is in the hands of the legendary lawman.

Cowboy Randy von der Shiloh Ranch ist der Galgen sicher, wenn sein Vormann, der Virginian, ihn nicht in letzter Minute rettet. Denn Marshal Buckman beschuldigt Randy hartnäckig des Mordes. Dem Virginian bleibt nur eins: Er muß den wahren Mörder, Mitgleid einer Bankräuberbande, finden und dingfest machen. (Text: Hörzu 43/71)
